Someone trying to make the point to me, the author, that "it really didn't take money from you" -- that' BESIDE the point. I write for a living, I offer my books for SALE. If I want to give my books away, I will CHOOSE to do so. No one has the right to choose FOR me.

I agree with your point, but that doesn't change the equation for "lost sales"
